Fibroblast growth factor 21: a novel metabolic regulator from pharmacology to physiology

TL;DR: Both the pharmacological actions and physiological roles make FGF21 attractive drug candidates for treating metabolic disease, but some questions remain to be answered.
Journal ArticleDOI

Elevated Circulating Lipocalin-2 Levels Independently Predict Incident Cardiovascular Events in Men in a Population-Based Cohort

TL;DR: Elevated circulating LCN2 level is an independent predictor of CVD events in men in a population-based cohort and adds to the prognostic value of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, which is currently the most extensively studied biomarker of CVC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decreased Abundance of Akkermansia muciniphila Leads to the Impairment of Insulin Secretion and Glucose Homeostasis in Lean Type 2 Diabetes

TL;DR: In this paper, a metagenomic and targeted metabolomic analysis was conducted in 182 lean and abdominally obese individuals with and without newly diagnosed Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and showed that the abundance of Akkermansia muciniphila significantly decreases in lean individuals with type 2 diabetes than without T2D.
Journal ArticleDOI

Role of Fibroblast Growth Factor 19 in Maintaining Nutrient Homeostasis and Disease

TL;DR: FGF19 plays a key role in coordination of liver bile acid biosynthesis and gallbladder motility, and acts as a regulator of metabolic homeostasis, including strengthening the immune system.
